I was so excited for camp because it was my first time going to camp. When i got to school i went and put my stuff down then i went to my friends there names are kordell,Havea,railey and the others. After that we were going to camp. We said goodbye to our parents and left in the bus. We were eating snacks and talking and playing games because it was going to take 3 hours to get there. After that we arrive we got off and 

Stretched and then we met Jenny and Tony. they were giving us instructions and they took us inside. After that we went around playing. After that we went to the beach and we didn’t listen to Miss Ashley by going into the ocean. After that we came back and had dinner which was nachos. 


On Tuesday, we got up, brushed our teeth, changed our clothes and came into the hall. Then we did jump jam. After jump jam we went and played games in the hall. For breakfast I had cereal. We all got into 3 groups - my group was Miss Ashley’s group. The kids were Kordell, Auckland, Davlyn, Rosie, Lily U, Hope, Senitila, Syraiah-Lee, Joshua, Hemi, Eh Htoo, Sumuree and Giamarni. We did orienteering which was a paper thing and you had to work as a team to find answers to the quiz. After that we did sports in the hall and then after lunch went to kayaking. I have done it before so I knew what to do. My buddy was Mr Randolph (Josh’s dad). We kayaked from one side of the shore to the other, explored some cool beaches and caves and then we rafted by each others kayak to make a big group. Me and Mr came second on the way back. Miss Ashley took our pictures. We went back to camp and went into the pools. After that we went shower and then came for dinner. After dinner and freetime, we all went to the hall to watch Avengers with our snacks and blankets.
